Announcing Tasks Jr.

Posted in: Tasks Pro™

In an effort to make the different versions of Tasks a little easier to understand, I’m renaming tasks 1.x to Tasks Jr.

I decided not to use ‘Tasks Lite’ because this isn’t a case where I’ve removed functionality; it’s really the younger version of Tasks Pro™ and Tasks.

I’ve got a pre-release of Tasks Jr. available now: Download (348 kB)

There are 2 basic changes from tasks 1.8.6:

  • PHP 5 Compatibility
  • A cleaned up install script, at the same location (install/) as the install script for Tasks Pro™ and Tasks. I’d get an e-mail once a week from someone reading the documentation for the wrong version.

Right now, the version is at 1.9 (up from 1.8.6). Do you think I should keep the 1.x versioning from the previous versions of tasks? Or should I start over at Tasks Jr. 1.0?

I’ll have a proper home for Tasks Jr. when I get the new King Design site up and running.

Note: I know the links to kingdesign.net in Tasks Jr. are dead, the pages aren’t up yet.

    Hi Alex,

    I’ve been using Tasks 1.x (Jr.) for about two weeks now–great software! There obviously seem to be plans to continue to develop the line, but I’m wondering if there’s some sort of roadmap for the Tasks family…?

    Hope all is well!

    I’m not sure what you mean, I’ve discussed future plans at some length here in the dev blog. Tasks Jr. (tasks 1.x) is in maintenence only mode. All the new development is happening on Tasks Pro and Tasks.
